Increasing PHP Allowed memory size

Some times we get the following errors Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 123456 bytes exhausted

Php is setup is to limit memory usage per process. If we require more, this limit can be increased.

Edit

/usr/local/lib/php.ini

and set:

memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

to a higher value, like 20M. Save, exit, then restart apache.

Setting up webmail.domain.com as default for new domains with DirectAdmin

Setting up webmail.domain.com as default for new domains with DirectAdmin

1) You’ll need to setup the virtualhost for apache. This can be accomplished by adding a 2nd virtualhost along side the domains main one.

cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates
cp virtual_host.conf custom
cd custom

You’ll need to edit the newly copied virtual_host.conf (or virtual_host2.conf if you’re using apache 2) file , just add the following to the end of whatever you currently have.

</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost |IP|:80>
ServerName webmail.|DOMAIN|
ServerAdmin |ADMIN|
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/squirrelmail
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/domains/|DOMAIN|.bytes bytes
CustomLog /var/log/httpd/domains/|DOMAIN|.log combined
ErrorLog /var/log/httpd/domains/|DOMAIN|.error.log
</VirtualHost>

Save and exit. Then run

echo “action=rewrite&value=httpd” >> /usr/local/directadmin/data/task.queue
/usr/local/directadmin/dataskq d

to rewrite the httpd.conf files.

2) You’ll also need to setup the dns portition.

cd /usr/local/directadmin/data/templates
cp dns_a.conf custom
cd custom
echo “webmail=|IP|” >> dns_a.conf

This will setup the webmail A record for new dns zones. For existing dns zones, you’ll have to manually add the webmail A record to point to the domains IP.
